It’s actually been almost a year, and boy what a crazy year it has been! Before I resume posting my reviews again I wanted to apologize for my sudden disappearance. Life got way too busy for a while and I couldn’t keep up with reading and reviewing, but here I am again and I am so ready to get back to it! I’m going to try to post reviews on Saturdays and participate in Top Ten Tuesday (hosted by The Broke and the Bookish) and Waiting on Wednesday (hosted by Breaking the Spine). I’ll see you soon!

“Little blossom trapped in between, wearing malice like a queen;
hide the truth, be cruel and tart,
still all the more, you rule my heart.”

Alyssa Gardner has been down the rabbit hole and faced the bandersnatch. She saved the life of Jeb, the guy she loves, and escaped the machinations of the disturbingly seductive Morpheus and the vindictive Queen Red. Now all she has to do is graduate high school and make it through prom so she can attend the prestigious art school in London she’s always dreamed of.Continue reading →

“Jesus, all this thinking about my feelings and hers was probably going to give me a period.” – Jennifer L. Armentrout, Oblivion

Experience the epic love story of OBSIDIAN as told by its hero, Daemon Black…

I knew the moment Katy Swartz moved in next door, there was going to be trouble. Lots of it.

And trouble’s the last thing I need, since I’m not exactly from around here. My people arrived on Earth from Lux, a planet thirteen billion light years away. Plus, if there’s one thing I know, it’s that humans can’t be trusted. We scare them. We can do things they only dream about, and honestly, we make them look weak as hell. ‘Cuz they are.

But Kat is getting to me in ways no one else has, and I can’t stop myself from wanting her—or wanting to use my powers to protect her. She makes me weak, and I’m the strongest of our kind, tasked with protecting us all. So this one simple girl…she can mean the end for us. Because the Luxen have an even bigger enemy—the Arum, and I need to stay on my game.

Falling for Katy—a human—won’t just place her in danger. It could get us all killed, and that’s one thing I’ll never let happen…

The Lux series is by far one of my favorite. Hot men, witty banter, and tons of action. Getting to read Obsidian from Daemon’s POV was amazing, so much sexiness. So much badassery. So much swoon! If you loved the Lux series, read this. If you love hot aliens, read this. If you’re in need of a great laugh, read this. Just read it. I need more, and I probably always will.

She keeps it locked away, along with her voice, trapped deep inside a brilliant mind that cannot forget horrific family secrets. Those secrets, along with the bulge in her belly, land her in a Boston insane asylum. Continue reading →

About Me

Hello! My name is Alyssa, I reside in a small town on the West side of the great -cold- state of Michigan. I’ve always had a love for reading, writing, painting, road trips, nature and animals. I read mostly Young Adult and New Adult with a few Middle Grade books tossed in here and there. Some of my favorite authors are Sarah J. Maas, Christopher Paolini, Jodi Meadows, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Marissa Meyer. It’s so hard to choose my favorites when they all write so well! Check out my Goodreads to see more of the authors and books I have enjoyed!
